Please call the Information Line for up-to-date information on this meeting. A notice in the FEDERAL REGISTER about last minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide timely notice. Therefore, you should always check the agency’s Web site and call the appropriate advisory committee hot line/phone line to learn about possible modifications before coming to the meeting.

Agenda

The committee will discuss, make recommendations, and vote on a premarket approval application for the FC2 Female Condom, sponsored by the Female Health Company. This device is indicated to help prevent HIV/AIDS and unintended pregnancy. FDA intends to make background material available to the public no later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post the background material on its Web site prior to the meeting, the background material will be made publicly available at the location of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be posted on FDA’s Web site after the meeting. Background material is available at http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/acmenu.htm, click on the year 2008 and scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee link.
